Chapter 365 Good Days

   Every year before the Chinese New Year, people on the old street of Lujia Village are used to a bunch of people coming to see Hu Chunlan and Lu Dong, and they also know that they are Lu Jianjun's comrades in arms.

   There are already many soldiers in Lvjia Village. In the summer of 1998, they witnessed the soldiers on the front line of the flood. As a village teetering on the edge of the flood, the people here understand the blood-stained style.

   This year, more people came, and there were also female relatives.

   Yu Zhanlong and Ma Yuanchao, who worked in Quannan, came with their daughter-in-law.

Director Ma of the   Women's Federation had known Lv Jianjun before, and had been there before.

   Ma Yuanchao's wife, Ma Ming's mother Zhang Li, was visiting Lvjia Village for the first time.

   Everyone was talking in the main room, but Zhang Li found Lu Dong who came out to fill the thermos.

   "Ma Ming was going to come with me, but there was some trouble with my classmates, so I was delayed." Zhang Li was wearing a woolen coat. She was in her 40s, but she was well-maintained, giving people a feeling of prosperity. Her voice was not high and her tone was flat: "I heard about Mengcheng, thank you."

   Lu Dong said, "Aunt Zhang..."

   Zhang Li raised her hand to stop Lu Dong's polite words: "Lu Dong, when you want to come to Daocheng, you can find me."

   Without further ado, he handed Lu Dong a business card and turned back to the main room.

   Unlike Ma Yuanchao, Zhang Li has very little contact with this side, so naturally there is no friendship.

   As for Lu Dong's side, I've heard old horse comrades talk about it a lot before, and it's an unsatisfactory bastard.

  Who knows, the two years have changed a lot.

   Actually, Zhang Li doesn't care much about this.

   The reason why I made a special trip this year is mainly because Lu Dong saved her son.

Zhang Li works in Daocheng, and her position is not low. She asked about Mengcheng carefully, and when she learned that the group of village gangsters had guns, her heart trembled with fear. She is just such a son. Somehow...

  No matter what state of mind Lv Dong had, Zhang Li would appreciate it if he could save Ma Ming regardless of his safety.

   After inquiring carefully, Zhang Li made her own judgment, and Lu Dong handled everything from start to finish. Except when rescuing Ma Ming, he avoided all risks as much as possible. He was more than a little bit smarter than his nerdy son.

   It doesn't hurt to feel that Ma Ming has more contacts with Lu Dong.

   Lao Yu and Lao Wei have always had a good eye for people.

  It was almost the same as last year, when everyone stayed at home for a while, Lv Zhenlin came over and invited everyone to visit the village factory together.

  The development and changes of Lujia Village can be seen with the naked eye. An ancient village is showing vigor.

  The crowd didn't stay long, and left before four o'clock in the afternoon. Many of them dragged Lu Dong for a chat.

The    team left, and Lu Dong and Hu Chunlan were sent to the streets.

   Spring Festival, the day when thousands of families reunite, the villagers who work outside the village also come back one after another.

   In the two days after tomorrow, Lu Dong attended several parties, among brothers on the same street, organized by elementary school classmates, etc.

   also went with Lv Jianren to pull fireworks and came back. The village committee will set off fireworks on the playground of the elementary school on the 30th night. It not only celebrates the achievements of the past year, but also means that it will continue to be prosperous next year.

   On the 30th night, Lu Dong and Hu Chunlan had dinner at their uncle's house as usual. Compared with last year's New Year's Eve dinner, there was less Lu Xia and more Fang Yan.

   During the banquet, Li Min and Hu Chunlan inevitably asked Lu Xia and Fang Yan when they would have children, and it even became the main topic throughout the dinner.

  Celebrating marriage, giving birth, and urging a second child are all common packages for the older generation.

  In the eyes of rural people, Lv Chun and Fang Yan were too old when they got married. They were both in their twenties and it was too strange to have no children.

  Lv Chun's peers have a lot of children going to primary school.

   Seeing that the eldest brother and sister-in-law were exhausted, Lu Dong took the initiative to answer, had a glass of wine with the uncle and the eldest brother, and asked Fang Yan, "Sister-in-law, did you all move here after the new year?"

"It's all moved out before May 1st." Fang Yan didn't want to continue the topic. Both her and Lv Chun's careers are on the rise, and they don't plan to have children for the time being. The main reason is that they can't afford to delay that time, so they quickly said another thing: " I heard a gossip about the university town and Qingzhao County, saying that the above has determined the eastward expansion strategy and is ready to let Qingzhao move."

  Men have always been interested in this topic. When people in the village get together, they can talk about national affairs and fight for a certain policy. Besides, Lv Dong, Lv Chun and Lv Jianguo who are here may have a direct relationship.

   Even Hu Chunlan doesn't care that Fang Yan doesn't want children for the time being. After all, there are changes in Qingzhao, which may have some impact on the food company.

   Only Li Min was a little dissatisfied with his daughter-in-law, but fortunately he didn't say much.

  The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has always been a question of a university.

Fang Yan works in a newspaper office and has already reached the middle level. A female leader who follows has the ability and background, and it is inevitable to hear some gossip: "I heard the editor-in-chief mention that there are rumors that some leaders intend to let go. The university town is divided with the eastern part of Quannan and merged into Quannan City to become a separate district."

  Lv Jianguo frowned: "Can Qingzhao agree? How big is the area, how much population? And there are industries. Last year, Qingzhao's top 100 counties leapt forward by more than ten, and university towns are the key."

   Lu Dong answered: "If the top wants to push, Qingzhao can't stop it."

   used to be like this, but it will take a long time.

  Fang Yan added: "It is said that Qingzhao also has an idea, saying that the county will be withdrawn."

   Lu Chun asked: "The opinions of the leaders above are unified?"

   "Not unified." Fang Yan heard a few words from the editor-in-chief: "At present, it should be staying in the heads and mouths of some people..."

Lu Dong thought about it and said, "It shouldn't be realized in a short time. Just to unify the ideas above is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and things like zoning can only be promoted by the province." He pointed to the north: "It's really going to come true, and we'll have to wait for the approval over there in the end."

   Lu Chun added: "There are rumors, it means that someone above is pushing this matter."

  Lu Dong nodded: "If it can be realized, the benefits to the university town outweigh the disadvantages. If the university town can be integrated with Quannan, my business will be easy to do."

   Everyone discussed the development of Qingzhao in the future, and the matter of whether or not to have children was naturally thrown aside.

   Lu Chun quietly gave Lu Dong a thumbs-up, and he managed to deal with it tonight.

   After dinner, singing began to sound from the loudspeakers of the brigade.

"Hey, happy gongs and drums beat the festivities every year, beautiful dances bring joy every day, the oil paint of the sun paints today's day red, the flowers of life are our smiles... Today is a good day, I think Anything can be done…”

With the singing of   , a large number of villagers walked out of their homes and went to the spacious playground of the primary school.

  The village will set off fireworks on the big stage in the playground.

   Lv Dong went to the village committee, packed up the car with Lv Jianren, Li Lin, Lv Tao and others who had already arrived, and drove the van into the elementary school.

  Because the news that Lujia Village is going to set off fireworks has long spread, not only people from Lujia Village, but also a large number of people from Majia Village across the river and Liuwan and Zhangwan nearby.

   At seven o'clock in the evening, the sky was already dark, and as the music from the loudspeaker ended, the fireworks placed on the stage rushed into the sky and exploded with dazzling light.

   After twenty fireworks, Lv Dong brought a group of young people and lit up twenty red hangings, the flames flickered non-stop, and the big stage was covered with a thick red carpet.

   On this festive day, Tieshu Yinhua bloomed in Lvjia Village.

  Li Wenyue came up from below holding a flower king, handed it to Li Lin, and said to Lu Dong: "Zhao Di is here, in the car below."

   Lu Dong gave the lighter to Lu Tao and said, "Listen to Brother Lin."

   He and Li Wenyue jumped off the big stage from the side and came to the side of the van. Sisters Liu Linlin and Liu Zaizhao were standing at the front of the car.

   There were too many people, and with the sound of fireworks overhead, Lu Dong asked the sisters to go out together.

   Lu Dong asked, "Why are you here?"

  Liu Zaizhao said first: "You set off fireworks in your village, come and have a look."

  Li Wenyue pointed around the stage: "A lot of people came from the outer village."

  Liu Linlin said: "Come out and breathe."

  Lu Dong nodded and asked, "Are you okay?"

   "It's okay." Liu Linlin smiled quietly: "It's okay for the Chinese New Year."

   Li Wenyue sighed secretly, he knew what was going on at his old classmate's house.

   Liu Linlin looked around and said to Lv Dong and Li Wenyue, "I watched along the riverbank in the north yesterday. Your village has changed a lot."

   Lu Dong said: "The above policy is good, my third grandfather dares to enter."

  Liu Zaizhao suddenly answered: "Everyone said that Lujia Village has a good secretary, so the better it goes, the poorer Liu Wan is."

   Involving Liu Mingquan, the father of the Liu Linlin sisters, Lu Dong and Li Wenyue are not easy to answer.

   Taking the situation of Qingzhao in the countryside, there may be many people with ideas, but to lead a village collective to become rich, it really needs a strong leader.

   Liu Linlin didn't want to discuss her father in front of her classmates, so she asked, "Lu Dong, you are in the catering business, do you know which restaurant in the county opens earlier?"

   Lu Dong didn't answer and asked, "Do you want to treat yourself?"

   "I want my old classmates to have a meal, and you have helped me a lot." Liu Linlin said softly: "I don't want to be at home, the meals outside are closed for the New Year."

   Li Wenyue said with a smile: "Our classmates and friends for many years, we don't need to treat."

   Liu Linlin said, "It's not just the two of you."

  Lu Dong thought for a while and said, "What time are you planning to invite?"

  Liu Linlin obviously thought about it: "Before the fifth day, I plan to leave on the sixth day..."

   Li Wenyue asked, "Didn't you say it will be past fifteen?"

   Liu Linlin said: "Where I work, there is something going on after the seventh day of the first year."

   "I don't seem to have anyone who went to work before the fifth day of the new year."

   It's not more than ten years later, and the business is basically closed during the New Year. Lu Dong said, "In this way, go to my hot pot restaurant in the county town. The place is big enough, but there is no one to cook, so we need to do it ourselves."

   Liu Linlin hesitated: "Will it be too troublesome?"

   "It's alright." Lu Dong said, "Just clean up after dinner."

Liu Linlin thought about it for a while and couldn't find a better place, so she agreed and said, "We'll be on the fifth day of the first day, and I'll call to inform others. Wen Yue, don't forget to call Yuan Jing, Lu Dong... …”

   She hesitated for a moment and said, "You remember your name is Song Na."
